Girolamo Lucino is an interesting character that I fondly like to describe as a Camillo Agrippa fanboy. His fencing treatise, which I have just finished transcribing and translating says "I therefore warn you to take advantage of everything that appears to me to be good about Camillo Agrippa, and I assume that you have it all by heart." He uses Agrippa's work as the foundation for his fencing treatise "Dialogue of Girolamo Lucino of Casalmaggiore on the use of the sword" - describing where his technique differs. For instance, where Agrippa has four guards, Lucino has three.
